Award-Winning English Teacher, HQT and Ph.D., Published Writer, Central New Jersey

4I am looking for a challenging job that allows me to use my skills and experience as fully as possible. I have always defined myself as a teacher, but I am now considering options outside of education. My professional writing often requires me to learn new content about a wide variety of topics (business, self-help, spirituality, chemistry, economics, and more), and I can communicate difficult concepts in accessible, jargon-free language. I am also confident of my ability to manage others or work in a team environment because I have managed urban classrooms successfully for many years, and I have often excelled at motivating underperforming students to improve their skills in reading, writing, and critical thinking. As the co-teacher of many interdisciplinary courses and projects, I have made many valuable contributions and am viewed as a thoughtful, positive motivator who can both generate ideas and accept those of others.
